We are working with the African Library Project to provide books to eager readers in Africa who have very few books. Please help us by collecting and delivering gently used books or by raising money to help pay for shipping to Africa. It takes only 1000 books and $500 (plus a little elbow grease!) to start a single library and make a huge difference in children’s lives.

I am Vishal, a junior in High School at Katy, Texas. My brother, Sameer is in 7th grade.
I have passion for debate and my brother loves scouting and math competitions.
Both of us are avid readers. My brother and I would read any books we could get our hands on, but not everybody is so fortunate to have access to books across the globe.

I found this wonderful way to make books available to kids in Africa via African Library Project. Please help us to get to our target of a minimum of thousand books and USD 500 to start a library in Malawi (Wukani Education Facility)

The African Library Project brings gently used books to an African community that has lots of eager readers but very few books. Please help by collecting and delivering gently used books or by raising money to help pay for shipping to Africa. It only takes 1000 books and $500 to start a single library (and a little elbow grease!). NO contribution is too small.
